Sorry if I sound negative towards libpeas. I'm not fundamentally against
it. I try to objectively evaluate it, and it doesn't appear to be the
holy grail either, especially with our strong focus on maintaining the
plugin ABI/API and exposing the current API via bindings.
Amen to that. I'm not saying using Peas is not a good idea, I'm just
saying we should step a little back and see things in perspective, and
for what they really are. If then Peas still seems to be the most
sensible, then great.
What makes you think (some of us) haven't done that? It's not my fault
people had fantasies about all the wonderment it could provide and are
let down to find out that it only saves us rolling one large piece of
the non-C language plugin puzzle :)
But I agree, it would be fantastic if everyone was on the same page with
regards to what libpeas provides and how much of it we'll have to
re-write ourselves into the existing loader if we don't use it, and what
the dependencies Geany would have afterwards, and how we'd have to
manually write language bridges to those hook into those languages (ex.
geanypy), etc.
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
